TO avoid any confusion about shipping charges,please don\'t pay the invoice you\'ll get from immediately after the sale ends--especially if you\'re an international buyer. It\'s only an estimate, and it\'s usually wrong. I\'ll send an invoice ASAP after your sale ends, and it will be for exact USPS shipping costs. Thanks, appreciate your patience.I don\'t think I\'ve ever seen a vintage Infant of Prague statue in such perfect condition. Made ofchalk ware, He comes complete with His gold lace-trimmed red velvet robe, ivory satin under robe and high lace collar. All clothing fastens atthe neck with elasticized buttons, and it\'s easily removed without damage. Condition is wonderful---needs a little cleaning at the high collar, wherethe back of the Infant\'s head has rubbed against it, and the velvet nap at back has a little wear, but I cannot find any rips or tears. Removing His robe reveals an absolutely perfectchalk ware body...please see my photos. Amazing that His hands and crown have nodamage. He stands barefooted on a base that\'s marked with a large F and the name Cilursu? etched into the chalk. Included is His double-sided pink plastic beaded medallion, which hangs gently from theglobuscruciger in His left hand. One side has an image of the Infant, the other has His name. Height is just under 11\" tall. I have no idea as to age, but the base is stamped simply ITALY,which leads me to believe he\'s early vintage, if not antique. There are absolutely NO disappointments with this statue, and I guarantee if you collect religious items, this is a must for your collection. Please make sure to read my description and check all photos before offerding...I\'ve posted as many as will allow. Good luck and thanks for looking!
